Yew Tree Cottage Reviews

Joanne
Loved the cottage, the comfort of the bed and hot tub after a long day walking was great loved the fact what it was secluded away from the hustle and bustle. didn't min the 2 mile walk to the pub which was great fish and chips amazing, owners of the property where friendly and approachable great people coffee machine a welcome. thanks a million
Claire
We both really enjoyed our recent visit to Yew Tree Cottage. The setting is absolutely stunning, we loved waking up to the sound of sheep and cows and being lulled to sleep by the owls! The hot tub is the perfect relaxing remedy after a long walk or just for fun! All the amenities in the cottage were perfect, as were the hosts! Would definitely love to go again and would recommend this cottage highly!
Beautiful cottage in an idyllic setting. Great base to go exploring from, with the added treat of relaxing in the hot tub in the evening. The single track lane that we had to drive along was quite scary at times, when we met other cars. But it was in the cottage description.
Kimberley
We had a great stay at Yew Tree. Everything we needed was there. The cottages was stunning as were the surrounding views!
Fantastic cottage. Spotlessly clean with everything you could need. Comfy bed. Enjoyed the hot tub and outside area. Set in a very rural location with total peace and quiet. Good location as a base for visiting the lakes and also perfect for our dog. Owner very happy to help if you had any questions. We will return.
Lorraine & Neil have created a wonderful holiday home at Yew Tree Cottage, finished to the highest of standards. A surprisingly spacious living area with high vaulted ceilings and exposed beams throughout, with a fantastic walkin shower in a modern bathroom. A lovely 2 tiered patio and to top it off a secluded hot tub with stunning views of the Coniston fells. Even the bedroom had lovely four poster bed and plenty of room, for a 2 person cottage it certainly packs a punch! Some beautiful walks from our doorstep and the local pub is only 2.09 miles away, GPS tracked!! Coniston was a 15 minute drive, where again, plenty of walks to tackle and Ambleside is half an hour. A peaceful location and having the owners on site, if there are any issues, just pop to see them and nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommended.
We had a fabulous stay at Yew Tree Cottage. It is very well equipped, cosy and welcoming. It was a perfect place to see in the New Year with a Christmas tree there to welcome us and fizz too ! We did not need to bring a thing with us. Georgeous views from the door and very welcome hot tub after a long walk.
This is a lovely cottage in a superb location. There is a 2 mile long single track road to drive before reaching the cottage, a mixed blessing. The owners are very friendly and helpful, there is plenty of safe dog walking in the vicinity and the hot tub is a great added touch.
Dianne
Brilliant cottage modern spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The location was wonderful

Victoria
Yet again the cottage was beautiful. Yew Tree is one of our favourite places to visit. The cottage has got all the facilities that you could need. The hot tub is well needed after a long day out walking. The cottage is situated in a beautiful tranquil area. No phone signal which for us was bliss. Can't wait to visit again.
The cottage is beautiful in an amazing setting. very helpful owners too. highly recommended. thank you
Shannon
Absolutely fantastic holiday at yew tree, fantastic location for us, quite and peaceful. All facilities as listed and cleaned very well before we arrived. A brilliant location for exploring the Lake District i Would definitely recommend and hope to return one day.
Just home from a wonderful stay in this beautiful cottage, where we celebrated my husband's birthday. It was everything we hoped it would be. The hot tub and beautiful surroundings were the highlight of the trip as well as all the little luxuries within the cottage which made it especially comfortable. You're far enough off the beaten track to relax and forget the world but close enough for a trip to Coniston, even if only to have a wander, call for a drink and grab some essentials to restock the fridge! There are quite literally walks from the door and everything you could possibly need within the cottage. We really didn't want to leave and will definitely return. Thanks so much for a lovely stay.
Beautiful cottage in a beautiful area. It gave us a week of bliss and total self indulgence. Loved the hot tub and jacuzzi bath! The dog thought she was in heaven. Wonderful couldn't be better!
We had a fabulous time staying in this cottage for our honeymoon. We enjoyed the remoteness of the cottage, it was a total escape from everyday life. The hot tub was a bonus and overall the cottage was warm, cosy and we didn't want to leave!
We booked this cottage for a weekend stay and absolutely loved it! It had everything we needed and more. A beautiful location and a fabulous cottage not to mention underfloor heating divine. The hot tub and Trivial Pursuit were some of our many highlights. Would definitely stay again!
Perfect for a quiet, relaxing weekend away from it all. Cottage is stunning, as is the view..! We'll be back...!
This is the 2nd time we have visited Yew Tree Cottage. It was just as lovely as our last visit. It has everything you need and more immaculately clean and in the most beautiful surroundings. Lorraine and Amber the dog were so friendly. Our spaniel absolutely loved the surroundings, she is a nervous dog and the security of all the fields being walled we both and our Honey felt safe and secure. Wonderful place for dogs We will most definitely be back. Thank you.
We spent a wonderful relaxing week in this superb cottage. The photos do not do the property justice & we would recommend it to anyone. If its privacy & peace you are seeking in a beautiful location with plenty to do within a 15mike radius this place would suit you. The kitchen was properly kitted out which meant self catering was a real option, the hot tub worked at the right temperature & the view from the hot tub was phenomenal. We took our bikes & cycled miles round Coniston & Windermere, we swam in the sea at Bootle, travelled on a steam train from Ravenglass & walked up hill & down dale in the surrounding area. Wilsons pub 2 miles away is friendly with real ale & a fab chef. Weve been twice now & will be returning.
Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, wonderful cottage with everything you could need
We wanted peace and quiet and that is what we got. Beautiful place.
The pictures do not begin to show just what a wonderful location this is. The property itself is also lovely. If getting away from everything is what you are looking for you will not be disappointed. The kitchen is well equipped and the local pub is great for the odd meal, you really dont need to travel further. Lots of scenic walks from the doorstep. Thank you Neil and Lorraine, will definitely be back.
The cottage was bigger than we thought the hot tub was in a great secluded area ... The cottage was bigger than we thought the hot tub was in a great secluded area but could also see out to the lovely views
This property is stunning. The facilities better than advertised and far roomier. The scenery is breathtakingly beautiful & the view from the very private hot tub amazing. We had such a wonderful break weve booked for Sept cant come soon enough.

Yew Tree Cottage is a wonderful, relaxing place to stay, so comfortable and in a beautiful location. The owners are really friendly and helpful. We had a perfect holiday there.
The pictures do not do this beautiful cottage justice. It was absolutely stunning! Very modern amenities and exceptionally clean. Fantastic to find a place which has a hot tub and allows dogs! The location was perfect for us far enough from civilisation to feel away from it all, but close enough to nip to the pub and to local amenities. Excellent walking straight from the door step.
A lovely cottage, well equipped and with a fabulous hot tub. No wiif or mobile phone reception provided the complete get away. Our dogs loved walks that were accessible right from the door. Thank you for a great holiday.
Yew Tree Cottage was exceptional, a beautiful setting, peaceful, lovely walks and a great base. There was everything you needed. The owners are lovely and nothing is too much trouble. I would highly recommend it.
The cottage was beautiful, lovely style, very modern and beautifully clean. It is very remote though, no phone signal and no WiFi and, with a 2 mile driveway it is literally in the middle of nowhere, which we loved. You need to go shopping on your way because there was nothing there when we got there, so if youre coming a long way, it might be an idea to have some essentials tea, milk, bread etc. just so you dont have to go straight back out again after a long journey, which we did and we were exhausted!
Fantastic cottage in beautiful surroundings
Beautiful cottage in a wonderful setting
Great location, cottage was lovely. Very clean with great facilities. Hosts very welcoming. Would highly recommend Yew Tree Cottage to others and hope to visit again soon. Thank you
We absolutely loved staying in Yew Tree Cottage! It was beautiful! Spotlessly clean, perfect location, beautiful surroundings. The cottage was so homely, the bed super comfy, gorgeous bathroom and kitchen. Loved the hot tub! Our cocker spaniel was in her element with 100 acres of farmland to run around in. The Griffins, along with Amber the dog were super helpful and lovely. The location was perfect and under 20 minutes drive to most places. I am really fussy about the cleanliness of places and almost always have to clean everything before we use anything when we arrive in holiday rentals. There was literally nothing to clean when we arrived! It was immaculate!!! Thank you to the Griffins for a wonderfully relaxing holiday. We will be back!

South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU
about 10 Miles

This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals.  Described as the most interactive animal park in Europe it's well worth a visit if you are staying in the area.  Open from April to end October some of the highlights are the tigers, penguins, bears, hippos and rhinos.  At 2pm during certain seasons it's feeding time so don't forget to plan your day around this so you can watch the animals enjoying their feed.  Look out for seasonal events such as Halloween Zoo Boo (free entry for kids in fancy dress) and The Magic of Christmas.

Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU
about 10 Miles
Rydal Mount & Gardens are wonderfully situated between Lake Windermere and Rydal Water offering breathtaking scenery. The home of William Wordsworth from 1813 - 1850 the grand home is now lived in by the poets descendents but parts of the house and grounds are open to the public. Why not take a guided tour and see the rooms where many of the famous poems were written. The gardens are beautiful at all times of the year but in the summer offer a spectacular display of colour. There is also a gallery and a tearoom. Discounts are available for group bookings.
Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US
about 16 Miles
This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.  There is no better way to explore the lakes than on water and you could even combine a cruise with a spectacular walk.  For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families.  Corporate groups are also well catered for.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis - LA6 1JH
about 17 Miles
Located in the Milnthorpe area of Cumbria we love this local attraction.  With an eclectic mix of fascinating wildlife and hands on displays this centre is educational as well as fun.  You can wander around at leisure admiring the exhibits which range from chameleons to computers. Some of the most threatened species are kept at the park as part if international breeding programmes.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs which are great value for money.  There are discounts for pre-booked parties of 12 or more.
Happy Mount Park - LA4 5AQ
about 20 Miles
Happy Mount Park has attractions for the whole family including several play areas, a miniature railway, crazy golf, putting green and trampolines, there is also a paddling pool where the little ones can splash around in the summer and a café where the adults can relax with a drink. During the summer months and especially during school holidays live music can often be enjoyed.
Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD
about 25 Miles
We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look".  Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project.  The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish!  Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...
